Happy Tuesday! I apologize in advance for more basketball pictures but it really did consume our entire week last week. The good news is that this week we only have 1 game which is great so I can focus more on Christmas stuff and spending time with the family. Wow--Christmas is next week!!
Until then here are last week's pictures:
We're all the way in Lodi for basketball and being away later in the day means dinner on the road. His fortune said something about meeting a new person today, and he said, "Maybe tomorrow because it's already too late for that."--true!
Near work this morning I saw these Christmas berries heavy with rain and thought they were very seasonally festive. Nature is great that way. Later I was waiting in another away gym for more basketball to start. At least we're a bit closer to home today so we should be home earlier--maybe even in time for dinner.
Day 345- Wednesday, 12/11/19
No basketball today which will be the only day this week besides Sunday. This meant I had time to find my missing holiday candy bowl and was able to fill it up with fun treats.
John sitting in the chair where we all sit if we are prepping to walk the dog and it is that time so she is more than ready for him to step up. Afterward we headed out to the first game in our home tournament. It's a late game starting at 8 pm which is hard for me since I work so early the next day, but it was a good game with a great ending for Brandon that was fun to watch.
As a research scientist I love to see this--Justin at a poster session presenting for one of his finals. It was a group project but how cool for them to get this experience so early on in their college journey as freshmen in their 1st semester. Makes my heart sing. Back at home John and I are sporting many game day stamps as we watch the game in day 2 of the tournament. It's another late 8 pm start. I'm clocking some seriously long days this week. Oh and we picked Tyler up close to midnight from the airport today as well. Yawn! Thank goodness tomorrow is Saturday and we can sleep in a bit.
It's the final day of the tournament and at least it ended much earlier than the past few days. River City came in at 2nd place fighting hard and making the other team really working for their 1st place title. It was a physical and exciting game. Later we finally got to relax in the evening at home. It was clear and sunny today but still super cold so the cat was happy we turned on the fire. This is his new favorite place even if it is the dog's bed. Lucky for him she doesn't really like to be by the fire.
There he is! Like I said Tyler is home for the holidays and has settled in nicely. He's enjoying watching a Niner's game with his dad, and while they do that I'm held up wrapping presents in Santa's workshop.
That's all! See you next week on Christmas Eve 🎄
Oh, so much basketball! We had a tournament last week too, but our games were not that late! Bless you! Glad you got Tyler home! My girls get home tomorrow and we are sooo excited! Those Christmas berries are so pretty! Enjoy your week!
